This is no ordinary recipe book.

It s like a cooking school in your

home, ready to answer questions

on the spot. Step-by-step

photographs show you how to

prepare food for microwaving,

what to do during cooking, how to

tell when the food is done. A new

photo technique shows you how

foods look during microwaving

The foods selected for this book

are basic in several ways. All

microwave well and demonstrate

the advantages of microwaving.

They are popular foods you

prepare frequently, so the book

will be useful in day-to-day

cooking. Each food illustrates a

principle or technique of micro-

waving which you can apply to

similar recipes you find in

magazines or other cookbooks.

This book was designed to

obtain good results in all brands

of ovens. Techniques may vary

from the cookbook developed

for your oven. If rotating foods is

unnecessary in your oven, that

technique may be eliminated All

foods are cooked at either High

or 50% power (Medium). The

Defrost setting on earlier ovens

and Simmer setting on current

ovens may be used when

Medium is cabled for. This

simplifies the choice of settings

while you become familiar with

the reasons why different foods

require different power levels.

Microwaving is easy as well as

fast. The skins you develop with

this book will help you make full

and confident use of your

microwave oven.
